05/01/2007 8:46 AM Hello everyone, I am not unsubscribing, but just won't be checking in very often or posting much at all. I am always thinking of all of you and will be a constant cheerleader for the cause of autism awareness. But it hurts to read the posts now. I miss Jaden and I miss everything about him. I have joined a grief site and now that is the support that I need. I will be praying for all of you! Me and my husband may have another child sometime in the future and I know the odds are that I will be back to join you all. I hope you all had a peaceful holiday. My 5 year old, Tyler, asked for pictures of Jaden for Christmas. I got him a teddy bear with a picture of Jaden on its sweatshirt. And a mini photo book with pictures just for him to hold onto. He always talks about "the autism" (the autism walk). We are planning on keeping up with "Jaden's Butterflies" each year in the autism walk. And the other day he wrote Jaden a note that said "I miss you Jaden" and he said he was going to give it to him when he goes to heaven. I told him it would be a very long time before he went to heaven. So, the other day when my mom was watching him, he told her that she was going to go to heaven before him, so he gave her the note to give to Jaden when she died, but first he signed his name, so Jaden would know it was from him. I just hope Tyler never forgets his brother. I will miss ACAS, and I want to thank you all SO MUCH for all the support from the time I got Jaden's diagnosis up until today, with all of the support, prayers and well wishes. Keep on supporting each other and lifting each other up. You are all amazing!!! Jessica |
